Standard mode
Normal mode
Intensive mode
High power for extracting cooking fumes and
smells
Establishing a connection from the range hood to the hob
The range hood can only be connected to hobs that have the OptiLink function.
▸ For activating the «connecting mode» on the hob: see the operating instructions for
the hob.
▸ For activating the «connecting mode» on the range hood:
▸ Switch the appliance and the illumination off.
▸ With the appliance switched off, hold the
button depressed for 5 seconds.
–
The
display symbol flashes when the «connecting mode» is active.
–
If a connection could be established to the hob,
illuminates for 10 seconds and
then the range hood is ready for both OptiLink and manual operation.
– If no connection could be established, the
display symbol stops flashing. In this
case, another attempt at establishing a connection can be made.
▸ If a connection could be established, this must be confirmed on the hob. See the op-
erating instructions for the hob for this.
The buttons and operating elements on the range hood are deactivated during the
connection process.
A range hood may be connected to as many as three hobs. And a single hob may
be simultaneously connected to several range hoods. Establishing a connection
requires appliances are equipped with OptiLink.
